Re: Giving up...(maybe??!!)

Hi,
I am using the network 192.168.123.*,
you need to change 123 to 0 for your network.
And, change the IP to you IP address. I am not
using DHCP. So, I am not sure if it works under
DHCP. Anyway, DHCP should work by default.

I attache my version of the network.opts.
Change DNS_1 to your local DNS.

Hope it helps.
